Big-time pol does big-time movie

Long-time Batman fan Senator Patrick Leahy of Vermont will be appearing in next year's movie The Dark Knight.

This isn't the first time the chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee has been involved with the character, having done voice acting on the Batman cartoons and having written the preface for The Dark Knight Archives Volume One (his piece was ghost-edited, by the way, by ComicMix's editor-in-chief). His compensation will be donated to charity.

No word on whether Leahy's been signed to any sequels.
